Unlock Your Genetic Potential

There is no one-size-fits-all model for effective weight loss. Advances in genetics now allows access to comprehensive, reliable, cutting-edge genomic testing that enables individuals to make health decisions according to their DNA.

What does your genes say about you?

With DNA testing you can find out specific genetic information that impacts metabolic function. Knowing this information then guides decisions specific to your needs. This includes;

Nutritional Needs

Risk for nutrient deficiencies. What health products do you need. Do you need Vitamin A, B12, D, folic acid, or iron?

Dietary Choices

Are you lactose intolerant. Should you go gluten free. What is your caffeine tolerance

Eating Habits

Are you satisfied after eating. How to curb your tendency to snack. Mitigate unhealthy eating habits

Exercise Regime

Weight resistant or endurance training

Are you prone to inflammation and poor recovery. How well do you repair (methylation). Do you have an increased risk for tendon injury

Personalized Weight Loss

What type of diet is best for weight loss. More or less protein, fat or carbohydrates. Is intermittent fasting helpful or harmful

Disease Prevention

What is your risk for high blood pressure. Is insulin resistance leading to weight gain? Increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Risk for hormonal imbalance (option)

The FTO gene

In a genome wide association study, the FTO gene, known as the fat mass and obesity gene, was shown to have biggest influence on weight gain. Those with certain versions are associated with obesity due to poor satiety and preference for calorically dense foods; however, research shows that these individuals have improved weight loss with;

Get Long-Term Results

Researchers at Stanford University revealed that participants who were on genotype-appropriate diets shed 5.3 percent of their body weight. While those who were on diets not matched to their genotype lost only 2.3 percent of their body weight.

Those that follow genotype based recommendations are shown to:

Have 2.5-fold improvement in weight loss over a 12-month period

Are more likely to follow dietary guidelines long-term

Reduce waist size two-fold

Maintain weight loss long-term

What is Genetic Testing?

Your genetic blueprint impacts how you interact with your environment.

Your DNA is your genetic blueprint, a set of instructions that influences biochemical processes in your body and ultimately your health. You inherent this information from your parents, therefore we all have a unique blueprint.

With a DNA sample, scientists are able to identify changes in your genetic code, called single nucleotide polymorphisms, or SNPs. Researchers have identified how each of these SNPs impact health. From nutrient metabolism to behavious around eating to predisposition to disease, the information you can learn about your health is endless.
